I spent last weekend in Kushalnagara, in Kodagu district, in
a mobile home by Sai Vishram. As I shared the photos of this unique
accommodation online, I was flooded with several questions. This post attempts
to answer those frequently asked questions, while I am writing another detailed
post about my experience.

Q1: Where is this mobile home located?

A: At present this mobile home (also called as Motor home,
caravan or RV (Recreational Vehicle) is stationed on the backwaters of Harangi
dam, some 13 kms from Kushalnagara bus stand, adjacent to a small resort named
Shanti Resort.

Q2: What all facilities are there inside?

A: It has a living room with a TV, refrigerator, microwave,
a bed room, a bathroom, two toilets, a bunker bed for kids and another small
room. Toilets and bathrooms are western style but fully functional. There is
air conditioning and also a small kitchen unit (not used)

Q3: What about food?

A: It is cooked at the adjacent resort and served inside the
motor home. Only pure vegetarian food is served and no alcohol is allowed. Food
is very good and involves multiple varieties.

Q4: Can we drive this RV around?

A: No. This RV needs a trailer truck to move around. It has
no engine and driving mechanisms.

Q5: How much does this motorhome holidaying cost?

A: Sai Vishram’s motorhome holidaying costs Rs 15000 per day
for a family, including food. Your transportation till motor home and any additional activities not included

Dubare elephant camp, Bylukuppe Golden temple and tibetian
colony, Kaveri Nisargadhama etc are within 15-20kms range. Other places like
Abbe falls, Talakaveri and other attractions in Kodagu can also be explored in
a day visit. Harangi dam backwaters itself is a nice place to relax.

Q9: How long this mobile home will be there in Kushal
nagara?

A: Caravan will be in its current place for another month or
so for sure. After than not sure. Once backwater fills up due to rain, mobile
home may have to be moved elsewhere.

Q10: Can we just walk-in anytime to take a look?

A: No. If there’re no customers, staff also may not be
around. (Some of them come from Bengaluru or other Sai Vishram properties).
Also when there’re customers staying you can’t walk in and expect to be shown
around. So check with Sai Vishram if you have any plans.

Seems a tad expensive 15 k why would anyone pay up so much ? That to without drinks being served, next point for that budget one can stay in Maharaja s place at Kabini in Jungle resort....anyways it is their business.

How much does this motorhome holidaying cost? This question is common. So I think by providing the answer that is Sai Vishram’s motorhome holidaying costs Rs 15000 per day for a family, including food you will get better benefits.
